I'm not really sure when they're supposed to get in stores there. Their pre orders got delayed due to high demand so it might be a little while till they have them in stock in stores.

yep I'm coming from HTC sense too so have the same learning curve. I'm going to reactivate my tbolt tomorrow. I can't live without 4G at home. Hoping the signal gets stronger with an update.

btw... download foxfi... free 4g internet from ur phone

I think I like HTC sense better than the Samsung Touchwiz, but that may just be because I was used to using it for the past 2 years. I'll look into foxfi, thanks

It's scratch resistant, but not completely scratch proof. Getting those will just be an added layer of protection. I got a screen protector and a case for my phone, but I've only put on the case for now. I'll take pics some time later this weekend so you can see it with the case. It looks pretty sick with the blue case.

depends on how protective you are with the phone? if you want it absolutely perfect more protection is better

so I reactivated my tbolt and it's great to have 4g speed again. I have unlimited data and tether from my phone so I don't pay for internet access at home. It's too bad because the sgs3 is SUCH a cool phone. I am thinking about trading for a razr maxx to see if the radio is better

That sucks man. Have you tried calling VZW about the issue? At home I just use wifi on my phone.

I got the weird little flip case. I wanted to keep it thin.

sold my sgs3 for 550 cash, made a 335 dollar profit. It is an incredibly cool phone but since I live in a fringe area for data I'm going to stick with my tbolt for now. Enjoy those phones guys
